Y4's Four Dwellings Primary Academy are learning about the Romans. We considered the impact they made - we live with their legacy in lots of ways to this day. Apollo the rabbit appeared to tell us that before the Romans brought his ancestors here there were no rabbits in Britain! Michelle Court

CONGRATULATIONS to our long-term partners OA Boulton for achieving Level 5 in @RHSSchools awards! 'The Garden of Myth, Magic & Medicine' was designed and installed by Y6 students over the '23-'24 academic year - opening to the community on graduation day. Oasis Academies

Thanks to our friends First Polytunnels for their amazing rebuild Oasis Academy Woodview today. The old polytunnel suffered vandalism over the summer - and salvaging many of the materials - they managed to relocate it in the Learning Garden we're installing at the Academy! Oasis Academies

The mighty Y2's Four Dwellings Primary Academy are thinking about 'Extreme Environments' in science. 🏜 Using moisture meters, they investigated the changes in sand before and after its exposed to high heat - and discovered the effects of evaporation! Michelle Court

Solid. Liquid. Gas. The fabulous Y4's @fourdwellingspa are investigating States of Matter in science this half-term. Why do some solids float in liquid - and why do some float? There's only one way to find out! Design, build, and then race your own boat! Michelle Court

Fabulous Y3 Four Dwellings Primary Academy thinking about the approaching winter solstice on the 21st December reconstructing Stonehenge. Armed with a blueprint of the monument and learning how to use a compass ensured their models were aligned correctly with the rising sun! Michelle Court

Y3 Four Dwellings Primary Academy learning about the Indus Valley Civilisations. They were great innovators and among the first to domesticate animals! Children made Bronze Age wattle fences from willow to contain their livestock. Beautiful, functional and still in use today! Michelle Court

'Living Things & Environments' science topic this half-term, the mighty Y4's @fourdwellingspa have been investigating the life and times of the humble earthworm. Busting myths & gathering the facts we've discovered that old Wiggly-Woo really is King of the Beasts! Michelle Court

Loads of the Trust family will be back at Roots To Fruit tomorrow, and they love it! However Jonathan, who works there, bought them all a wonderful present at Christmas, which they are modelling here. Fantastic, aren't they!? Roots To Fruit Midlands

Y6 Oasis Academy Woodview working on the landscaping of their curriculum learning garden. Travelling back 2K years to break rocks & lay them as kerb stones on their authentic Roman road feature. They even found time to 'mock-up' how their firepit might eventually look! Dr Herminder Channa OBE NLE Regional Director OCL

Y3 @fourdwellingspa investigate Indus Valley Civilisations. Cylinder seals proved ownership of property. The cylinder would be worn as jewellery & then held against any item bearing the same imprint. Every child carved their own, unique design & rolled them in clay. Michelle Court

Y5 OA Boulton - Vikings in Britain. Most Vikings were illiterate - but some employed a simple runic alphabet that they considered magical & held good fortune. Children used modern & traditional tools creating runic charms from ash - the most important tree in the Viking world!

Marking May Day with Y3 Four Dwellings Primary Academy. For hundreds of years, May 1st was an important date in the calendar. Work ceased & communities came together to celebrate the spring & summer. We engaged in some of the activities & games they did on the village green! Michelle Court

Y3 @fourdwellingspa investigating Rocks & Soil in science. As geologists they considered the ingredients that make soil - like ingredients in a cake! They foraged for the elements to make it - but its not straightforward - we need 500 years for it to break down! Michelle Court

Y3 Four Dwellings Primary Academy are investigating Climates and Biomes as part of their geography topic. As naturalists, they undertook a scientific survey today of the trees and plants that make up the ecosystem of the micro-biome that is their school! Michelle Court Lift Schools

Y4 Four Dwellings Primary Academy investigating the topic 'Deserts'. The very dry weather gave us pause for thought - what life must be like when water is scarce? Children constructed an ancient water drawing device - a Shaduf - still used by many around the world. Michelle Court Lift Schools
